She’s an odd sort of girl. Her hair should be short, but instead it’s long because she likes the play with it when she’s taking exams (she sheds hairs all over her tests). She wishes she could wear earrings, but out of fear of the disastrous infection her aunt had to face, her ears remain unadorned.
Her clothes aren’t really plain, but they also don’t quite match. This is because she buys whatever catches her eye that’s on sale. The only sort of coordination she knows anything about is color coordination, but this image is indeed in black and white, so boohoo for you!
Even though it’s pretty warm out, and even though she’s not making a fashion statement, she usually wears a scarf. That’s for the same reason that she has a watch on her left hand and two bracelets on her right – ever since she was a little girl, she’s been afraid that a thief would try to slit her neck or wrists. In fact, if you ask her for the reasons for whatever she happens to be wearing, they are more likely to be bizarre like this than normal, such as “because I want to be pretty.”
Indeed, she isn’t even wearing a skirt because it makes her look cute (not that it really does, anyway). It’s actually because those jeans in fashion for most girls make her dry skin itchy, and her mom always forbade her from wearing sweatpants outside the house. That, and the feeling of the breeze caressing her gives her a little bit of happiness.
I don’t think people would call her fat, but she is certainly not as thin as she used to be. The never-get-fat gene that young Asian girls seem to have is waging something of a losing battle against her insatiable appetite. You can see that she has bought yet another set of groceries to cook at home. And you can be sure that she will be cooking three times as much as she needs to.
In her right hand is a book. She brought it to the grocery store. Why? Just in case it was closed, she would go to the park and read instead. She thinks about things like that. There’s nothing that she fears more than wasting time or being bored.
Her eyes are big and beautiful. It’s the only part of her body that she thinks is beautiful.
Trust me on everything I’ve said here, because I know her very well.
